I quite like this science smackdown from astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson. The world needs more robust, funny, scientists on TV.

He's great, isn't he? What I admire about his particular approach is that his humour and openness disarms people in a way that belligerence and name-calling never seems to achieve.
People really like him, and that counts for a lot when you're trying to get them to listen to your explanation.
